The Hirst Wood Burial Ground is an extension of St Paul’s Churchyard. The burial ground is closed to burials, but the cremated remains of Shipley residents or people with lifetime family connections with Shipley may still be interred in the Garden of Remembrance. The burial ground is accessed down a private drive on the Shipley side of H H Birch & Sons’ premises at Nab Wood Cemetery. The burial ground is left to nature and care must be taken on the pathways and steps in wet weather.
